Sooo hungry all the time!!!!!?

I'm 16 weeks pregnant and all of a sudden I'm starving all the time. Is this normal? I also don't want to turn into a fat blimp so I'm eating alot of fruits when I'm very hungry in order to stay healthy. I have only gained 1 lb so far and I know everything is going great. Please help I don't want to be fat just have a normal pregnancy, you know gain at most 30 lbs.

Update:

Also I was already over weight in the beginning of the pregnancy and was told not to gain more than 20 lbs. Thats also why I am concerned about gaining too much.

    Don't worry you won't turn fat. On my first trimester I had morning sickness all day and I could not eat anything. But as soon as I hit second trimester I was starving all the time. When I am hungary and I didn't eat anything right away I would get mad at anyone I see, I would just go crazy. Anyway I am 38 weeks now and I have lost the appetites to eat anything. And so far I have gain only 18 lbs in my pregnancy. So I am trying to say is that if you are hungry right now than eat whatever you feel like as long as it's healthy for you and baby. Because you never know when you will loose your apatite.

    I don't know why people are being so rude to you about only gaining one pound at this point.. that's actually perfectly fine! I am 13 weeks and havn't gained ANYTHING yet & my doctor (who see's me again at 16 weeks) said that even if I havn't gained any weight at my next appointment he still wouldn't be concerned so for all you people saying that she's not eating right, that is not even close to the truth.

    I know how you feel about being hu ngry all the time though! I just eat when I'm hungry and I stil havn't gained any weight so just moniter your weight gain but eat what you want for your baby! If you start gaining too much too fast then cut back :)

    It's just normal to eat a lot of food most especially if you are pregnant because the the fetus inside you is also looking for nutrients. The fruits you eat are very beneficial to the success of your pregnancy.

    Normal and healthy pregnancies don't gain 1lb. If mom wants to be healthy mom will care about baby instead of mom's selfish weight.

    YEA its normal cause you don't eat right.

    Eat enough so that the baby will develop right.
